Home Decorating Buying and Selling Homes Design Dilemma

Geometric board & batten walls

2 years ago

I get that traditional wainscoting styles are popular, provide a nice elegance to a home and can help increase value. But what about geometic board & batten walls? Are those considered not as nice of an option? Or too much as a niche? Pics for reference

Fine in a trendy modern space, ridiculous in a traditional home.

I do not go as afar as ridiculous but they do look better in the right space . I actually like tem netter than wainscoting but not in every space either .

Nice if used in a small space in a modern environment, like an accent wall.
